In our age of easy ‘Google-ability’, managing your online profiles and search results might be the difference between being hired and being invisible. A new service, Vizibility, can help you to manage the results that get listed for your name. It’s the world’s first ‘Google Me’ button.

“Have you “Googled” yourself? Someone else? Do you know people are “Googling” you? More than 85% of executive recruiters report “Googling” candidates as part of the search process today, and almost half of executive recruiters have eliminated candidates based on what appears (or does not appear) about them online. That’s not all. Love interests, prospective business partners, employees, the news media and others routinely search those they’re interested in. Don’t be invisible. With Vizibility you can manage what others find.”

Vizibility works with you to determine what your search results will show, with a unique, personalized ‘PreSearch’ URL and a ‘SearchMe’ button. The process begins with 3 questions: your name, your current employer (and previous employer), and the information you desire to be included in search results. After the process is complete, your personal URL links to those custom search results, and the results that are not relevant (or just inaccurate) will be excluded.

The embeddable ‘SearchMe’ button can be inserted into web or blog pages, your email, your other web profiles, and even printed on your business cards or other printed materials. The basic service is free for all users, but if you want to be notified of any changes to your search results, the company charges a small monthly fee of $2.95.

For additional features, an annual subscription fee of $29.95 enables analytics for your SearchMe button. Vizibility lets you know when you’ve been searched via an email or text message. This works out to less than the monthly fee, and you’ll know when people are searching you. Add to that the fact that you can control the search results, and it sounds like a win-win service.

The current version of Vizibility works with Google, but according to the company, it will soon integrate with other search engines, such as Yahoo!, Bing, and Ask.
